Wisconsin strength coach Brady Collins started the Dudes of the Week trend when he arrived in Madison, Wisconsin, this offseason. The announcement comes in the form of a tweet, and it is designed to recognize members of the program that have excelled during the team’s offseason work.
The month of June is usually a downtime for on-field activities with spring ball far in the rearview mirror, fall camp weeks away and recruiting visits owning the calendar.
That doesn’t mean there isn’t work getting done in preparation for the upcoming season.
This week’s Dudes Of The Week: running back Braelon Allen, defensive lineman Darian Varner, safety Preston Zachman, cornerback Ricardo Hallman, RB Grover Bortolotti, long snapper Peter Bowden, outside linebacker C.J. Goetz, DL Curt Neal and CB Justin Taylor.
